We are proud to announce the release of two new features, available immediately.
🚀 Jira Integration: Automate Issue Tracking for Test Failures
Managing performance test failures just became more efficient. With our new Jira integration, LoadForge can automatically create detailed Jira issues whenever a test fails.​
Key Benefits:
Automated Issue Creation: Failed tests trigger the creation of Jira issues, complete with logs, error messages, and test metadata.
Enhanced Collaboration: Developers and QA teams can access all necessary information within Jira, facilitating quicker resolutions.
Streamlined Workflows: Integrate seamlessly with your existing CI/CD pipelines, ensuring that performance issues are promptly addressed.​
This integration ensures that performance regressions are not overlooked, promoting a proactive approach to maintaining application reliability.​
🧰 Introducing the Graphical Test Builder: Design Tests with Ease
Creating load tests is now more intuitive with our new Graphical Test Builder. This feature allows you to construct test scripts using a drag-and-drop interface, eliminating the need to write code manually.​
Highlights:
Visual Test Design: Build complex test scenarios by dragging and dropping components, making test creation accessible to all team members.
Automatic Parameter Management: Utilize built-in tools to insert dynamic data such as usernames and credit card numbers, powered by Faker.
Real-Time Script Generation: As you design tests visually, the corresponding Locust test scripts are generated in real-time, providing transparency and flexibility.
Simplified Maintenance: Easily update and manage tests without delving into code, reducing the maintenance overhead.​
The Graphical Test Builder empowers teams to create and manage performance tests more efficiently, fostering a collaborative testing environment.
